Creamed Corn is the best kind of comfort food! Like the same says, it’s creamy and with this recipe you’ll love the cheese, crunch and casserole like version.
First made as a side dish for Thanksgiving, this recipe is at the top of my favorites. With so much rich, creaminess, and corn that is sweet, it almost feels like a dessert. Besides my mom’s recipes, recipes from old cookbooks or online. I found this one 10 years ago from a site that isn’t available anymore. It was a definite keeper!
What is creamed corn?
Chances are, you’ve had different types of corn over the years. But unless you are from the Midwest or the South, you might not have tried creamed corn. If that’s the case, you are definitely missing out!
Creamed corn is also known as cream-styled corn and common in those regions of the US. It is the utmost comfort food, as a version of sweet corn and almost soupy.
How to make creamed corn
There are lots of options for creamed corn. It can be made on the stove, stuck in the oven, or out of a can! (but I wouldn’t recommend that last one…) For this version, a base is made on the stove and then it is baked in the oven. The few extra steps are worth every second.
Cheese and crushed butter crackers to top off the casserole make it absolutely perfect!
Creamed Corn Casserole
While the word “casserole” turns a lot of people off, you won’t be able to resist this one. Cream cheese and mozzarella cheese make it so creamy and delicious. Butter crackers sprinkled on top help give it the perfect buttery crunch. I dare you to eat just one serving!
